no, it just is what it is. Under our current system politicians are bought and sold on a regular basis. Nothing untoward but just legal stuff. Got $100K for my re-elction campaign? okay, I'll take it. I got a pet peeve bill, you support it, I support yours. Doesn't matter if its a good bill or not, lets haggle.

I'm not ambivalent about it. It sucks, it's wrong and it needs to be changed. But, to change it , we would have to change our whole system of demoracy and how we elect our representives. And thats just not going to happen. I'm not ambivilant, I'm resigned to the fact that its not going to change unless the people really want it. And right now I don't think the American public is ready for that radical of change.

Giving $100 million in medicare benefits to Louisana to buy her vote. That chit needs to stop.

Why wouldn't they hold out? I mean since we've clearly thrown fiscal responsibility out the window, pissed on it and ran it over a couple of times why wouldn't they hold out to see how many hundreds of millions they can procure for their votes.
